Wifi on Alice buses, but who cares?

Alice Springs buses have a new addition: free wifi. But to many regular passengers, 'wifi' sounds more like a word from another language than a free internet connection. ABC Alice Springs took to the buses to find out what passengers think. Click play to listen.

Cyclist Anne-Marie said she does not use the buses at all because her bike gets her from A to B in Alice Springs.

"There's wifi everywheren so what does it matter that it's on the buses? If you want wifi you can go to a restaurant or a cafe - whether it's on the buses or not I don't think is an attraction," she said.

ABC Alice Springs Facebook followers expressed strong responses on the topic as well, with one commenter saying "for that amount of money they should have made air conditioned bus stops".
